What is the switch on throttle linkage
I have a 1993 300d 2.5 turbo. I have a post about excssive smoking posted and still trying to track cause.
I noticed a three prong switch / sensor on the throttle linkage over the valve cover. Does anyone have a pic of this arrangement,? There is a bolt hole beside it with nothing there, just curious if any thing should be there for the switch / sensor to sense? I checked the SM wiring diagrams and it appears to be the "control rod sensor" but not sure I'm reading the diagram correctly. What does the switch / sensor up there do? |
AC shutoff?

Thanks .....

My car is the 90 300D 2.5 and it has two sets of micro-switches. The nylon (?) races that trigger them switch at different throttle positions.
As above I've been told one is AC related but I do not know the purpose of the other. I'd like to though. |
for egr i believe.

Micro switches on "Throttle" Linkage
AAA and P.F. have got "it".
(And the D.M. "Wastegate"ectomy negates the EGR switch) Two Microswitches: Rear one, I believe, is EGR and the Front one is WOT A.C. shutoff. |
Thanks. I like knowing what's doing what on my car.
PS - The ...ectomy is a GREAT mod and once one gets over whatever trepidation they have about doing it it's pretty straight forward, except, perhaps getting that clip off the first time! |
